We're sorry, this alert is no longer available. If you would like to learn more about ways you can take action, please visit Friends of Dick Durbin.

The short explanation of this alert was:

Lake Michigan is in serious trouble, and we need your help to save it. That's why we've launched an online petition campaign to protect our lake. If you haven't yet heard our radio ad, click here to listen to it.

British Petroleum has announced plans to dump up to 1,584 pounds of ammonia and 4,925 pounds of industrial solids into Lake Michigan every single day from a BP refinery in Whiting, Indiana -- a massive setback to decades of work to clean up the lake.

We will be meeting with BP CEO Bob Malone on September 4, and we want as many of you as possible behind us when we sit down with him.  He needs to know that the millions his company has spent to burnish its reputation as an environmentally sensitive oil company is about to go down the tubes.

That's why we need you to join 61,504 Americans and sign this petition.  If enough of us sign this petition and pass it along to friends and family, Bob Malone will get the picture: BP will lose its reputation as an environmental leader unless they join us in protecting Lake Michigan.
